Constituencies serve as Kenya's second-level administrative divisions, with 290 currently established across the country. Each constituency functions primarily as an electoral district for members of the National Assembly and serves as the basic unit for parliamentary representation. Beyond their electoral role, constituencies are crucial for the allocation and management of the Constituency Development Fund (CDF), which finances local development projects such as schools, health facilities, and infrastructure improvements. The elected Member of Parliament represents the constituency's interests in the national legislature while overseeing CDF disbursement through local committees. Constituencies vary considerably in population and geographic size, reflecting Kenya's diverse demographic and spatial characteristics. They are subdivided into wards, which form the basis for county assembly representation under Kenya's devolved governance structure established by the 2010 constitution.
